Thread 3 - the one where things get serious

All my plans at getting organised in the last thread left me as I realised the thread with referrals was already up and running, so the one I set up I'll link to once the current one runs out!

They’re not actually cheap, but for those who split sets to make gift bags, or fill advent calendars these might be nice as bigger gifts.

@neja yes, there was a snapfish offer (not sure if that one has finished now) and a fujifilm one here - 50 free prints, just pay postage

Howdy all, looking for any recommendations on a kid friendly step counter watch for my 7 year old.

We're a low screen household so not bothered about it being particularly high tech/needing an app to work.

Noticed this one is on sale at the moment but wondered if anyone has used it or would recommend any others?

Thanks for all the pan advice on the other thread. My daughter is going to look around for another set that will last. She's replacing a cheap set she's had since she was a student, and wants decent ones.

George at Asda currently have 20% off Halloween themed items. Nice few things to put away for Xmas if you have someone like my DD who loves all things scary!

Pan wise we have some from Scoville and they have lasted well, I’m sure they have been recommended here in the last few years. Asda usually have them on offer around Black Friday.

I like Scoville
Asda quite often have offers on them Or what about good old stainless steel I’ll have to get off the sofa to see what brand mine are. Mine have lasted years. But my non stick ones are Scoville,

Second scoville or the Sainsbury’s pans (not the cheapest entry ranges though, as a minimum the stainless steel with silicone handle range)

Mine are stainless steel and have lasted decades. They were a decent set (not sure if they are Judge or Stellar) but they were an investment that has paid off.

I'm happy to get daughter an equivalent set, as she's setting up home, but I don't want to pay a lot for something that won't last.

Schuh have some great sale items with extra 20% off if you know a student. Just ordered crocs for DD for just over £27.

Re: Pans
Boundary Outlet if you have one within range have Kuhn Rikon pans on offer. Some were 50% off in my store. I’ve had some for years and they seem bulletproof!

For anyone who remembers Discount Dragon, it is now retailing under Peeko. They do excellent bargains but for foodstuffs please do check dates, they have lots of Lindt in at the moment but is short dated. They sent me 20% off my order earlier as I haven’t shopped with them in a while. Code is NZT67WS7, I don’t know if it is account specific but worth a try! I had a quick browse and lots of beauty bargains on there, I know people like to split up beauty hampers so posting link below.

20% off (almost) everything at SpaceNK

@lemoncurdcupcake I got that one for my daughter then aged 7 a couple of years ago, it's pretty good. You can link it to an app to change features and more watch faces but you really don't need to. I am going to be buying one for my now 7 year old son this year as he has asked for one.

We have a stainless steel Stellar pan set that has lasted 10 or so years and doesn’t look more than a year old (they all end up dulled from scrubbing, but then that’s how they stay forever). And a couple of Scoville non-stick pans that are 5+ years old and still going strong.

Thanks @Lambszaraote I wondered what had happened to them. I just placed a big order and used your code.

If anyone sees any bargain outdoor christmas lights, strings, reindeer, silhouettes etc (although not inflatables) I'd really appreciate a heads-up. My children have just announced they want to go 'all out' this year with the outdoor decs. They have a pretty rubbish year so far, so would like to make this happen for them.

Someone on the previous thread needed 100 candy canes, I saw packs of 30 candy canes for £1 in B&M today.

I got a set of Scoville pans in Asda last week. They were half price.

I got an email this evening that the Next Christmas shop is now open. Pjs looking a bit pricey.

My mil text and said she’s bought my ds’s oral b electric toothbrushes from Morrisons for £25 with her Morrisons card I think they were £60 originally

Tel her to look at Costco for good but reasonably priced pans
